This five-day course is designed for financial, operational, business, and IT auditors who need to update their technical and operational knowledge to audit information technologies and automated business systems. You will discuss the controls required when auditing currently installed systems, new systems under development, and the various activities within the information technology department. In addition, you will learn techniques for auditing automated systems. Then you will turn your attention to auditing the management of application transaction activity, controls, and procedures. You will master techniques that can be applied to mainframe, distributed processing, and client/server-based applications. You will gain field-tested tools for identifying, recording, assessing, and evaluating application controls and procedures. A detailed case study will provide step-by-step reinforcement of what you have learned, and you will leave this high-impact seminar with real-world examples of audit programmes, testing techniques, and audit findings. |
